DOC: WP, I think you're trying to be cynical, but I truthfully believe that is the EXACT statement that would be publicly argued to defend sending the money to the WTS.

Guys, you're confusing legal ownership of property with personal liability for the actions of individuals using the property.
It looks to me like the WTBTS is setting things up so that there is more of a landlord/renter relationship between each branch and each individual congregation.
Let's review: Oh, you know how it goes!

Splash: [The] July 2013 WT changes when it was shown that the F&DS have not yet been appointed over all Christs belongings, meaning that the KHalls did not, in fact, belong to the GB as previously taught. As a result, maybe some congregations thought the KHalls now belonged to them.
It would be a mistake to confuse "theological" concepts with legal realities.
You can be sure that whoever is running this religion does not.

Q: How does Jehovah show that he loves all sorts of people? He shows his love by threatening to kill them if they don't blindly follow whatever the 7 idiots in Brooklyn say he says to do.Q: How can you show it too? By shunning anyone that disagrees with you.
So go out and love all sorts of people, except gay ones, people with differing beliefs, former JWs, current JWs that speak out against injustices and wrongdoing in the organization ... you get the idea!
Let's review: It's a cult!

Kendrick " Letter of Introduction " from Elders regarding Candace Conti Case
by flipper inas many of us saw in the pbs news hour program and the abc news nightline program the elders from one congregation failed to communicate properly to the elders in another congregation concerning the child molester jonathan kendrick when he moved to a new congregation.
i have parts of this " introduction letter " from the fremont congregation to the oakley congregation elders so you can read it for yourself and decide how irresponsible these wt appointed elders were.
dated 1/16/98 it opens : .
